Partnerships
Two ways to work together
Both partnership models share the same principles: senior involvement, continuous delivery, and full ownership. The difference is scope and scale. We don't publish pricing because every partnership is scoped to specific needs.
Growth Partnership
For scaling companies building their core product
You've found product-market fit. Now you need to build the systems that will support the next phase of growth. Your existing team is stretched thin, and you need senior engineering capacity that can take ownership, not just follow instructions.
Ideal Client Profile
- Series A to Series C companies
- Software is core to the business model
- Lean internal team that needs to expand capabilities
- Product roadmap that exceeds current capacity
Team Composition
- Senior Product Engineer (Lead)
- 2-3 Senior Software Engineers
- Fractional Product Manager support
- Architecture oversight
- Product strategy and roadmap collaboration
- Architecture design and technical leadership
- Full-stack implementation and delivery
- Infrastructure and deployment automation
- Security posture and compliance foundations
- Documentation and knowledge transfer
- Weekly internal syncs and progress updates
- Bi-weekly stakeholder demos
- Monthly release cycles
- Quarterly architecture and roadmap reviews
- Staff augmentation or body shopping
- Fixed-scope project deliverables
- Junior-only delivery teams
- Offshore development centers
Enterprise Partnership
For established organizations with complex requirements
You're operating at scale with multiple product lines, regulatory requirements, and organizational complexity. You need a partner who understands enterprise constraints and can deliver within them while still moving quickly.

What both partnerships share
Regardless of the engagement model, certain things are non-negotiable.
100% Code Ownership
All code, documentation, and infrastructure configurations belong to you from day one. No lock-in.
Senior-Only Teams
Every engineer on your project has 8+ years of experience. We don't staff with juniors to pad margins.
Continuous Delivery
Working software, shipped regularly. Not waterfall phases or big-bang releases.
Product Thinking
We care about outcomes, not output. We'll challenge requirements that don't serve users.
Exit Readiness
We document, train, and prepare for handover from the start. You can leave whenever you want.
Direct Communication
No account managers or translation layers. You work directly with the people building your product.
